1. Classic Kaposi sarcoma: This type affects mostly men over 60 years of age and has a strong predilection for those of Greek, Italian, or Jewish ethnicity.

2. African cutaneous Kaposi sarcoma: This type also occurs more commonly in men, specifically men 35 years or older, and is endemic in native black African men.

3. African lymphadenopathic Kaposi sarcoma: This type is endemic in black African children.

4. AIDS-related Kaposi sarcoma: This type is more common in adult men but also can occur in women and children.
